CALANGUTE: Adventure is the new buzzword for the well-heeled domestic tourists down in Candolim which, with its half-a-dozen, high-end five-star resorts besides other luxury resorts, is considered to be a hub for the rich Indian and foreign charter tourists.
While earlier it would mostly be the foreign charter tourists who would go on ‘day trips’ or ‘excursions’ as they are known, now it’s the rich domestic tourists who are going scuba diving, snorkeling and on other boat trips for the adrenalin rush, stakeholders said, happy with the unexpected business.
